This ZOOM Paint-In will be Saturday, May 8 from 9:30-12:30. The ZOOM access code will be in your registration confirmation as well as an email the day before the Paint-In. We recommend you sign in at least 10-15 minutes before start time. Fee structure for the ZOOM class will be the same as previous in-person Paint-ins.
It will begin with a demo. The goal is to use a waterscape photo reference and interpret it into a loosely rendered watercolor. Together we will:
- Choose photo reference
- Create multiple fast thumbnail sketches in pencil or charcoal to capture the essence of the scene
- Create quick color thumbnail from one or all the pencil sketches to work out color choices
- Produce a ¼ sheet or 9 x 12” painting from the above
